Hi
As title says, sadly in this world of unsavoury people its just not good enough to block a text, sometimes what you want is to blocking the text and also let the yahoo know that you never got it by sending a automated text back to them saying its rejected
I have tried the Norton beta which didnt even block a text when i tested it
Pliz help
thanks
Might be able to use tasker for it.
Set up a profile to autorespond to the message.. Not 100% sure if it can delete though.

You can try Easy Filter from the market. ive tried it before, it works well, and as you said, it can send automated text.

On a previous phone I owned, the message delivery notification was just a little icon that appeared in the sent items list. On my N95 notifications were saved in a seperate folder without popping up on screen or ringing/buzzing.
On the raphael, delivery notifications are just normal text messages, which isn't the most practical solution. Is there software for WM that can change this behaviour? Turning it into an icon view would probably be difficult technically, but not displaying a bubble when the notification arrives and silently moving it to a seperate folder would also be a nice solution.
So, is there any way to enable this on the Raphael?
Anyone?...
I tried the program SMS reports eraser, but that doesn't do the job either :/
Is there software that just intercepts the report, marks it as read and places it in a seperate folder?
You should try MagiCall.

Thanks for the tip. I installed it, and made a rule saying that all SMS messages containing the word 'delivered' should be marked as read and moved to a seperate folder. I then saved, performed a softreset, and sent a SMS to a friend.
Unfortunately, this one doesn't work either Could it be that the TF3D interface is overruling the Messaging app, and with it blocking programs that try to tie into the messaging part?
I also find the way these are handled annoying compared to my old N95. The notifications don't even have the person's name, just the number which makes it even worse!
I tried SMS reports eraser and it stopped me from being able to send messages and when people sent them to me I never got them even though the other person got a delivery report!
A suitable program or idea for these would be great. This is my first windows mobile phone and that's probably my biggest issue with it, apart from that it's great.
Ignore this!
Start>Settiings>Sounds & Notifications Select Notification tab. Go to New Text Message. From there, you can select Display Notification on Screen. That keeps the popup to nothing more than the envelope in the top bar once you deselect it.
Hope that's what you are looking for.

Delivery reports have no phone number but with a sender name, such as 'System Administrator'. To filter them, just use MagiCall to filter that sender name. Example:
Rule type: SMS
Filter type: Sender name
Name list: System Administrator
Action1: Move to folder
To: spec_folder
Leave all other settings default values. It should work.
Solution
Well, i seem to have the same problem, but i have found using Advance Config software to actually solve this problem. I am not sure if that is what u guys are looking for but after using the Advance Config, i will get a msg saying "msg sent" whenever i send an sms, but not get any report. So i am assuming when it says "MSG sent" it is already a delivary report which i got from my previous WM from from other PDA.
So here is how u do it. First install Advance Config, then go into settings, under messaging tab, change "sms sent notification" from disabled to enabled.
And restart your phone. Once done, everytime u send an sms, u will recieve a buble box saying " msg sent" thats all. No rubish in your inbox.
Let me know if this help. Thanks!
Is there any way to see the persons name in the notification instead of the number? This has been annoying me since I got my phone

While this works, this isn't exactly what the previous posters wanted. They wanted the delivery reports and not the sent reports.
Symbian S60 intercepted these delivery report messages and then displayed them as "popup dialogs" to users before storing them into a separate folders. This is also one of my gripes about WM6. But I can live without delivery reports.

Install the attached cab file and it will solve your problem......It worked perfectly on my TP
oK, thanks, I´ll try it tomorrow
I'm having the same problem, I was post a new thread but I searched and found this.
I like delivery notifications, but the fact that it comes as a normal SMS instead of a popup notification like on other phones is really annoying.
I'm not getting any notifications (sent or delivered) and I want to get at least 1. I live in an area where I have pretty spotty service and it's annoying to find out an hour later that my text never actually sent. Is there any way I can turn it on?
I checked the htc manual and it says I should be able to enable a delivery report before sending the message or in message options. However, my message options are light grey so I can't click on them. It's been like this since I took the phone out of the box.
Thanks so much.
I'm having a very strange problem with sending text messages to certain people on my Hero. I noticed people not getting my messages and just thought that maybe they weren't being sent at all.. Until I decided to look at the "details" of some of my sent messages. Instead of the name or number that I entered, it keeps sending certain text messages to this address "[email protected]". Now, I receive alerts from Bank of America from this address occasionally, but it is not in my address book at all, and even when I delete messages that I receive from them I still have this problem.
Then of course, since that is not a valid phone number or e-mail address, I get a delivery failure messages every time I send a text to that address. Anyone have any ideas why it keeps sending messages like this?? I have hard reset, and switched Heros a couple of times, and it still does this. I've tried using Handcent, still no luck. With Handcent, after I send certain people a text message, the title of the conversation is even the Bank of America address, and not the person's name!
Any help would be appreciated, this is driving me crazy!

oh yuck... wipe your phone dude... then update your PRL under settings (it's in there somewhere) and don't install any online banking apps untill that is fixed... that definately sounds like a bug
You may want to check this thread to see if this is what's happening. I think I'm getting something similar on my Droid Eris after receiving a text from an email client.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1233
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that there is a fix beyond hard resetting phone
And even more unfortunately, it looks like this issue goes back over a year with no resolution!!! Hope this isn't what I have to look forward to with an 'open source' operating system...
this is happening to me as well. I don't have any banking apps installed but I do get an SMS from my bank telling me when my paycheck has been deposited. ALot of my messages come in to this thread and there have been times that I thought I was responding to a person who had just messaged me who did not get my text. If I were to start from 'people' and find a contact and send a message from there, it will work.
btw, this is from handcent.
Thanks for the link, I had searched everywhere, I thought, without any luck. Just from reading the first post, that is exactly what happens to me. I'm gonna go finish all of the posts about it, thanks again!
Well, as you'll find out from the thread, the only real way to get your text messaging working properly again is to hard reset the phone. Bummer, I know.
You may try what I did, though, and use an app called MyBackup Pro (free 30-day trial) to backup some of your important items before you do the reset.
I backed up my settings/home/bookmarks and then separately my contacts. I didn't back up my apps, but chose to redownload them from the Market since they are listed in My Downloads. Then as soon as I reset my phone, I first re-installed as many of my apps as possible (including MyBackup of course), and THEN restored my settings and contacts.
I still had to reset the settings on some programs, but it definitely saved a bit of time.
And this may be random, but I experienced an issue after resetting where my phone would not dial out to anyone. Turns out, Verizon had to reset something on their end that got screwed up. You have to get to level 2 tech support to fix this.
Hope this helps...
I am having the same issues. Will try a hard reset and see if that helps. I have also disabled any texting services from B of A or Fbook or Twitter. Hopefully that will fix it. Thanks for the thread.

magical is really good. I use it a lot. I love that app. the same way you setup for calls is the same way you setup for messages. then after you check the logs and you can see who called and also read the messages that was blocked. pretty nice.
hey,
Since a few days im having problems with my messages inbox.
Because when you send a message to a contact you can see what messages you have send before right ? so it looks kinda like a conversation and you can scroll back to the first message you have ever send.
Now im having a problem because when i send or recieve a message it doesnt show.
I do get a notification that someone had send me a message but i cant find it and/or read it. because when i go to that conversation it just shows that the last message was send yesterday and i can read those without a problem it just doesnt show new messages.
I have deleted all my messages and then it works again for the first 5 or 6 messages but then again if i get a message i cant find it in my inbox and it looks like i never got a text.
I've looked into the options and couldnt find anything strange so i was wondering if someone else had problems with this ?
People do recieve my messages though so thats not a problem i just cant read the ones they send to me so it almost looks like my phone only saves a certain amount of messages and after that it will not save my messages anymore.
sorry for my bad english
have you tried another messaging app like handcent from the market it is free and also a good messaging app there is also go sms for free so maybe try theser and see what happens??
Hey there, I hope you're doing great!
I'm creating this thread because I was wondering if the issue I am about to describe is a known bug or if it only happens with me.
The problem I am experiencing is sporadic, as I cannot determinate a specific cause for it; it sometimes happen right after reboot, and sometimes after long usage, after a call, simple idling, etc.
Of course the issue is that when I receive an SMS message from a contact, I see it pop-up at the top as a notification, but when I want to see it in the threaded conversation, it is simply not there. I can continue texting, and they continue receiving my messages properly, as do I... only by looking at the top status bar though, because other than that, the threaded conversation remains the same during the whole exchange.
My phone is not rooted, it is a brand new LG-P999 from Videotron (They call it the LG Optimus 2X here!) and it runs Froyo 2.2.2!
Thank you very much for your help, and of course, excuse me if this issue has already been looked into! Otherwise, have an awesome day!
Is it possible you are using a third-party text app? I ask because I mainly use Google Voice for my texts, but every now and then someone will text my phone number, which of course means it goes to the phone's message app. As you mentioned, you get the notification and can respond just fine. However, if I don't pay attention, and go to my Voice messages, their messages will not appear, and I have to switch to the built-in message app to see their conversations.

Thanks for your reply, but I am actually using the stock SMS app!
Hmph, started looking into the "Messages" app settings and found something called "Text messages on SIM card" and found all the messages I was "missing".
What causes this?! =O
*EDIT*
I looked on the Internet a bit but found nothing pertaining to the LG-P999/G2X. I, however, found information on the matter saying that this is usually caused by reaching the maximum capacity of SMS messages in your phone. I have about 120 messages all in all, which is certainly a very small number! I also have about 4.50GB of free space on my phone!
Thanks for the help!
This is a known issue from LG... Call the tech support and open a ticket.
Voicemail notif is causing this issue... default storage is change to simcard by the OS...

Thanks a lot, it is definitely a relief to know that this is a known bug. Do you know how we can change the default storage of the voice mail, or I need to root?
Thanks!
I just wanted to add that I successfully found a permanent workaround to this problem by installing GoSMS Pro! No more "disappearing" text messages
